I have a 1300. Very first gun I bought. I was in college and living with grandma for the summer when I found someone trying to break in at 5:30 in the morning. Managed to scare them off, but went that evening to Oshman's and bought it. It was $249 with a rebate, so it was about $100 less than the 870 I think at the time.

I now also have a 870 20". Both are great guns and run well. I really like the action release on the 870. The 1300 is 'ackward' especially since I have a pistol grip buttstock on there.
